Ask ron Improvfd Car Service. The nino nii'h rlubs representor! by the Frnm u!a Development League have decided to a.k fnr improvement of the car service on the St. John cnrllne and a change on the Lxiwer Albina line. Through the league, these clubs will ask for a straight ten-minute ear service between Portland and St. John. Also that St. John cars do not Ftop between the car barn, at Piedmont, and the city to take on or let off passengers. This is asked for the reason that many people get on the Pt. John cars when they should take the Upper Albina cars which are operated to take care of way-trainc. By maKing tiiese c tons people living down the Peninsula are frequently compelled to stand for the entire distance. Further it will be asked that the Iower Albina cars which now run to Killlngsworth avenue be run on ji!lincsworth avenue to Vnion avenue. .All the nine clubs have considered these matters and concurred in them and they will be presented to the management of the Portland Hallway. Light & Power Company. Progress o.v Fills. Good progress is now being made on the Kast Stark-street fill, between Grand avenue and Kast Seventh street. Ship ballast is being used in this embankment.

Dr. Woodruff had just turned into Sixth street from Alder when the boy crashed into the front of the automobile.

TONE WAR IN PROSPECT TEX If IGIIBIXDEllS OX THKIR WAY TO POIiTLAXD. Chinese Coming to Murder Members of Loch! Organizations Under Watch at Salem. According to a reliable source of in formation in the local Chinatown, Port land bids fair to become the scene of one of the bloody tong wars that have stirred San Francisco, New York, Phila delphia and other cities. The trouble be tween two factions of the Bow Won Tong of this city, which culminated re cently in the killing of Lee Dal Huey, one of the best-known of the local Chi nese merchants, has spread till It has Included the branches of the tong located both at Astoria and at J?an Francisco. News has reached here that there are at present in Salem ten members of the Bow Won Tong. all highbinders, who are on their way to Portland to mix in the imbroglio and who have stopped off at the Valley town, hoping to slip quietly Into . the city. Watch is being kept of their movements, however, and the mo ment that any of them attempt to leave the capital by any one of the three means of reaching Portland, the news will be telegraphed here, so that they may be prepared for. It is evident that the Chi nese who know of their presence in the state are very much alarmed. Included in the gang of hatehetmen and gunmen is Lim Ga Gee, the head man of the tong In San Francisco, and a man of very bad reputation as a trouble maker. He is said to have been at the bottom of all the fighting that occurred in San Francisco for several years. The fact that he lias considered it worth his while to come to Portland personally to direct the hostilities that are expected to oc cur is taken a- evidence that the backing behind the Instigator of the trouble is powerful. Astoria Tong Takes Hand. The Astoria branch of the tong. it was learned yesterday, has raised during the past few weeks the sum of J1000 and sent it to San Francisco to aid in defraying the expenses of the trouble. Certain of the Astoria members have a grievance against certain members of the local branch who are under the ban. growing out of a dispute as to wages paid by one of the local men who took a con tract from a fish cannery to furnish labor. The allegation is made that after receiving the money to pay his men, he promptly decamped, leaving the fisher men stranded. The present trouble is looked upon by some Of. these fishermen as a good chance to get even with the defaulting contractor. Police Ward Off Trouble. Owing to t lie activity of the Portland police and their ability to keep track of the movements of the Chinese there has been a comparative cessation of hostili ties since tho death of Lee Dai Huey. The only outbreak of any kind was the attempt a few nights ago to set fire to the house of the murdered merchant. Thi3 was in reality an attempt to "get"' one of the four men who had been marked for killing according to orders received from San Francisco. When the trouble first began It was learned that four'Portland men had been marked. These were Lee Dai Huey. who has already been killed ; Lim Bin. who has left Portland, and on whose track two highbinders are now camped; Chin Hong, who runs a store at S3 Second street, and who by process of law is bottled up there, and Hong Ging. who, since the at tempt was made to burn him out, has pone into hiding. There remain three of the four who are doomed to have the fatal death warrant served upon them, for according to the principles of high bindery it Is a disgrace to fail in an . at tempt to get a man who has been marked. Various highbinders from San Francisco and other California towns have come to Portland since the trouble started, and these ar housed partly at the home of one Jo Kal, who lives on the Bast Side, and who Is looked upon as the real in stigator of the whole affair, and partly at a little hut between the Oaks and Ore gon City, where they are cared for by one of the market gardeners that bring produce into the city. Both of these retreats are known io the police and are watched carefully to prevent, as much as possible, any further outbreak. Whether the ten who are at Salem will succeed in getting into the cltv is doubt ful. If they do. local Chinese say it certainly means trouble, and big trouble at that.

Aime Leicester a " The Kid Gene Ormonde 4 Geisha Girl Alice Leech 4 BY ARTHUR A. GREENE. IT WAS good for that feeling of ennui, whatever that may bet to be one who helped welcome the San Francisco Opera Company back to Portland under favorable conditions yesterday with its thoroughly enjoyable performance of that capital musical comedy, "Fan tana." We Portlandcrs feci somehow as If this organization was a local in stitution, for the recollection of its lonfe run at Hie Marquam last Summer Is still, fesh. On this present visit the company is better by several degrees than last Summer and a full city block in advance of what It has been on the othr two occasions of its coming. "Fantana" fits the cast like a glove and with Its bright tunefulness and Its spontaneous humor is an oasis in a dreary desert of things that pass for musical shows. Teddy Webb is back In fine form and gave the best performance I've seen by him since his work in "The Alaskan." Hfs interpolation of the illustrated song burlesque, "Don't Go in the LIons Cage Tonight,' Is so funny that the audience leaves the theater aching from the effects of trying to laugh last and hardest and all the time in tight clothes. He gives us a number of new lines in the joke department. Awkins, the valet, would be h Ighly amusing If played by a mediocre come dian. With Webb in the part it's a scream. Another friend of other days is Jos cph Miller, who comes back from i Winter's work directing some of the big Shubcrt attractions to assume the stage direction. He has few superiors in handling a chorus and a cast of principals and what he doesn't know about productions is worth little. He plays the bogus French count in the present bill and repeats the success he made In the part here last season. Dainty little Daphne Pollard, the cutest little two-ounce package or a comedian that you want to see. sus tains her reputation to everybody's satisfaction as Jessie, the maid, the part played here last Summer by Flor ence Sinnott. Pretty, vivacious Gene Ormonde, who made her debut here last year, re ceived something of an ovation. Wal lace Brown low appeared to advantage as the Commodore and Grace Walser, the new prima donna, although labor ing under a bad case of stage fright, gave promise of becoming a favorite. The one serious criticism of last night's performance, in fact, was the nervousness of the principals. Almost without exception they seemed to be scared to death. Perhaps It was the tremendous audience which bowled then over. Audiences are audiences nowadays, you know. The chorus has materially improved. Tne costumes and scenery are quite good enough. Same attraction at the Marquam all week with a matinee Saturday. "The Texas Ranger, at the Star 99 MELODRAMA without a villain is something of an anomaly, but that is what, was witnessed at the Star Theater yesterday,' and will be seen all the week. "The Texas Ranger," as pre sented by the French company, differs In important particulars from Its for mer appearance here, but in both the "heavy" Is casi as an Apache chief. About .5 o'clock yesterday afternooi a line of waiting people stood at the Star box office asking for tickets for the night performance, but the nouse was sold out. Manager French pro nounced the play and tire manner of its presentation the best thing he has offered since opening his engagement, and It can be said without stretching a point that the play is put on in a style that disarms criticism. The scene Is laid in Texas during an outbreak by the Apaches, who had left their reservation and refused to return. They attack a post garrisoned by sol diers and rangers, and after several powwows, are about to annihilate the whites when rescue comes in the nick of time. A double romance is inter woven in the story, giving Miss Davis. Miss Taylor. St. George Daglenn and Charles Burnieon opportunities to dis play their talents In lovemaking. Mr. Daglenn. as the Chief Ranger, gives an excellent account of himself, and Mr. Henderson makes his Indian chief a mighty fine character. Mr. Berry again gives evidence of his ver satility in the capacity of an Army offi cer, and Mrs. French gives the best performance In character work she has yet shown the Star audiences. Miss Taylor makes a sprightly and convinc ing supposed Indian girl, who turns out to be a white child stolen from a wagon train. Frank Seaward, .as Yel low Dog, a halfbreed; and Charles Con ners. in a Chinese character, have much to do with the working out of the plot, but the excellence of the work of these older members of the company caused no surprise that was left for a new aspirant for dramatic honors. Dixie French, the young son of the manager, made his first appearance in a part of consequence as a Ranger Captain. Mas ter French couldn't well help possess ing dramatic ability, being the son of two members of the profession who made their marks on the stage; but he was suddenly called upon to take the part, owing to the Illness of one of the regular company, and filled the require ments like an old stager The French company goes In three weeks to the Sound cities, for a short engagement, and during- their absence the .Star will present musical comedy by one of the Sullivan & Considine troupes.

"A TRIP TO CHINXtOWN AT THE BAKER, Wetland Strong William Dills Ren Gay William GIea?on Rashleigh Gay Donald Bowles Norman Blood ...William W'olbert Willie Grof Howard Russell Noah Heap Jam Gleason Hoffman Price Charles Lewis Slavin Payne R. E. Bra d bury Turner Swift Jnmes Murphy Ptillman - Tharles Wood Tony Gay Elsie Garrett Isabelle Dame Lucile -Webster Flirt ....Maribe! Seymour Mrs. Guyer Louise Kent BY ARTHUR A. GREENE. AT the outset, the above-signed wishes to announce as loudly as possible that Maribel Seymour is a most remarkably brilliant and industrious young woman, and that, In view of the cleverness and sheer effort she puts Into the production and performance of 'A Trip to Chinatown," which the Baker Is offering this week, she is en titled to a larger meed of praise than my poor pen can inscribe. ' Not only bas she arranged and directed the mul titudinous musical and specialty num bers which make the familiar old Hoyt farce a delightful evening's entertain ment. If you overlook Hpyt's coarse ness, but most of them are her own In ventions, and several of the musical numbers are her own composition. My hats off, little woman: you're a won der, and there's no flattering expres sion I wouldn't like to use In speaking of your work this week. This is said without the slightest desire to dispar age our talented friend, Billy Dills, who is a stage director par excellence, nor any member of the company who contributes to the success of the per formance. "Chinatown" is so familiar to thea tergoers that It would be an affront to go into details a to the thin thread of story the New Hampshire farceur bases It upon. It Is a trifle broad at times and its general tone is perhaps not above criticism; but when so capa bly played as It is this week, and so delightfully embellished with special ties, it becomes a show that is irresis tible. Walland Strong, the man with one foot in me grave, is entrusted to Wil liam . ..is; Hen Gay is played by Wil liam Glee son: Donald Bowles is the Rashly Gay; rtoward Russell, the Willie Grow; Maribel Seymour pirouettes through the piece as Flirt, the maid, and Louise Kent !sMrs. Guyer. With that sort of cast, it is needless to say the farce "goes." 'Nough said. it is the specialties that are really of greatest interest. There is such an excellent array of these that it is diffi cult to differentiate. The list of them, complete, f ol lows: V'The Dance Sons" Flirt and Ben Gay 1 By Maribel Seymour. "College Song" Flirt and Male Chorus By Maribel Seymour. Aria from "Romeo and Juliet" Tonv "Will You" Elffe Garrett "That's What the Rose Said to Me" Charles Lewis "Dutch Collen" James Gleascn and Maribel Seymour "School Days" Choru?

Dinsmore Fording, a Port land GirU "If You Must Make Eyes at Someone" ' Louise Kent "In Votlevllle (Noah) Maribel Seymour "Little Yuki San" Tonv' Maribel Seymouc "Robin Red Breast" Maribel Seymour Miss Seymour's imitation of Marguer ite Clark singing "Robin Red Breast." in "Happyland," and her "In Vaude ville" number; Elsie Garrett's singing of the "Romeo and Juliet" aria, and her Japanese specialty, are the four that please best: but there isn't a dull one among them. A coon song. "What a Darkey's Love Kin Do," composed by Stella Fording, a local girl, possesses considerable merit. "A Trip to Chinatown" is one of the ehovvs that are guaranteed to chase the blues back into the high weeds, and it will undoubtedly crowd the Baker all week as It did at both performances yesterday.
